My grandfather was/is very good friends with George. This is accurate. My grandparents told me a story about how they were at his house during a party and he was wasted and got up on a table and dropped his pants and started wiping his dick around.
TL;DR: My grandparents have seen George Brett's dick.

SHMEASTER!! ha yea, my bestie went to school with the kid too. wouldnt be surprised if you knew my friend. He said he drove nice cars n stuff and they got vandalized a couple of times due to him being an asshole. Like father like son right?

Still commentating on 101 for game day. Mitch and Len and Denny Matthews... Man growing up with those voices, anytime I hear them still I can close my eyes and think it's 1997 again. Nothing in my life has given my goosebumps every time I've heard it like TOUCHDOWN KAN-SAS CITY. And then Len chuckling in the background and saying something like 'my goodness did you see how fast he got outside?' Love it

Even the guys playing in the first Super Bowl were not "normal guys." Granted, they didn't have the advancements in sports medicine and technology that today's athletes can take advantage of, but they were still on the far upper end of the spectrum in terms of athleticism and/or skill.

Sports isn't something people watch to relate to. It's something people watch to see humans at the maximum of their physical abilities. I can't relate to anything LeBron does, but it's amazing that any human can do that.

Athletes today know that their bodies are multi-million dollar assets and most behave accordingly. I believe Dawson was being paid what would be, in todays dollars, about twice the league minimum for the lowest paid player in football. (Joe Namath around this time signed what was a record contract for around 2.5 mil in today's dollars.) Peyton Manning, by contrast, is paid $19 million per year. Manning has about 50 times the incentive Dawson had to take good care of his body. This also means there are about 50 times more people working about 50 times harder to take his job. I think professional athletes today are on a different level than professional athletes of 40 or 50 years ago - because they have to be.

I don't know much about sports back in the day but athletes these days treat their bodies like machines. Pumping in different chemicals to supplement their already insane training regimen in order to be at 100% efficiency. The average person can't keep up with that routine because they can't afford to spend their entire day at a gym or afford to purchase the latest supplement programs.

Depends on the sport. While the average baseball player is clearly better than the average of 70-100 years ago due to having a much bigger talent pool, the greatest players from then would still be damn good today.

But that's what makes what they do so incredibly impressive. I mean seriously, football, hockey, rugby, etc... Players are our modern day gladiators.

The improvements in science, medicine, and especially equipment allowed them to become the athletes they are now. It's crazy what they can do now. Plus the money now allows them to just do this, just focus on the sport and nothing else. And I'd wager a lot of players are relatively "clean".

Grandma: His wild, untamed facial hair revealed a new world of rebellion -- of change. A world where doors were open for women like me. But Abe was stuck in his button-down plastic-fantastic Madison Avenue scene.

Abe: Look at them sideburns! He looks like a girl. Now, Johnny Unitas -- there's a haircut you could set your watch to!

Fun story in the same vain, Max McGee's performance in the game. TL;DR: The dude was completely hungover for the game and did not expect to play (especially in a day when you weren't playing with 5 WR sets). Boyd Dowler went out really early and McGee had to borrow a helmet to go in. Ended up scoring the first TD in SB history and Bart Starr said he should have been MVP of first game.

Though as a smoker, I can look at this picture and relate to it. He is thinking "Holy shit. This is an amazing cigarettte..this is why I smoke." After he puts it out he's going to feel ready to go. Unfortunately, bad habits have bad effects. Take the ticket, ride the ride. No sympathy for the devil.

It's crazy how much more athletic people have to be to make it in pro sports now. I mean look at the NFL right now, an average linemen is 6 foot 5, 252 pounds. You have to be extremely strong, and very quick.

I'm not sure if I could say many, because I have seen many NFL players, but I do know that there are still NFL players that smoke cigarettes. The two players I've seen doing it were offensive linemen during the offseason. One of them is Ryan Tucker. The other still plays so I don't really want to put that shit out there.

If i search for "weed", your comment is the only one that mentions it.

If i search for "joint", there's a couple hits but no one is really thinking it's a joint. as far as that "Halftime at Super Bowl XLVIII: Joints" comment, Dynasty471 explains: "He's saying that the two teams in the Super Bowl this year are both from states with legalized marijuana. He's not referring to the picture above, which is from Super Bowl I."

So did Dallas Cowboy Thomas "Hollywood" Henderson. Between plays in Super Bowl XIII against Pittsburgh he snorted a mixture of cocaine and water from a Vick's inhaler that he hid in his pants. Now that is out of control.

They say that since no known video of the game is known to exist, you would be paid one million bucks should you find one. (There was an urban legend that Hugh Hefner had a recording of it as he was one of the few people who owned a VCR back in the day)

Oh how times have changed...I've also heard that back in the '70s it wouldn't be out of the ordinary for NHL players to smoke between periods. I can't even imagine the lung pain I would experience if I did that
